I mean, I know my Leaf is quieter than a 3. It also cost about a third of what a 3 does after credits and rebates. It is revealing to me when people make a comparison of a 3 to an old Nissan and go "unrealistic! hypercritical!"
I don't know if Tesla makes creakier or noisier cars than average, statistically, but I think most folks who have driven another EV can agree that the 3 isn't particularly quiet, and it's not just "well that's how every car sounds when it's not EXPLODING POISON!!".
Like, my Nissan dealership sucks and hates EVs, that's true. But when I complained about a restraint error in my 3 to a Service Advisor who wanted to send me on my way despite the triple error chime ringing every 90 seconds, and then asked him if he'd accept that in his new car, only to be told "well, Toyotas don't really have these problems", I discovered that it's not all FUD.
